Subject: [PATCH v7u1 30/31] x86, 64bit, mm: Mark data/bss/brk to nx

HPA said, we should not have RW and +x set at the time.

for kernel layout:
[    0.000000] Kernel Layout:
[    0.000000]   .text: [0x01000000-0x021434f8]
[    0.000000] .rodata: [0x02200000-0x02a13fff]
[    0.000000]   .data: [0x02c00000-0x02dc763f]
[    0.000000]   .init: [0x02dc9000-0x0312cfff]
[    0.000000]    .bss: [0x0313b000-0x03dd6fff]
[    0.000000]    .brk: [0x03dd7000-0x03dfffff]

before the patch, we have

0xffffffff80000000-0xffffffff81000000          16M                           pmd

0xffffffff83e00000-0xffffffffa0000000         450M                           pmd

after patch,, we get
---[ High Kernel Mapping ]---
0xffffffff80000000-0xffffffff81000000          16M                           pmd
0xffffffff81000000-0xffffffff82200000          18M     ro         PSE GLB x  pmd
0xffffffff82200000-0xffffffff82c00000          10M     ro         PSE GLB NX pmd
0xffffffff82c00000-0xffffffff82e00000           2M     RW             GLB NX pte
0xffffffff82e00000-0xffffffff83000000           2M     RW         PSE GLB NX pmd
0xffffffff83000000-0xffffffff83200000           2M     RW             GLB NX pte
0xffffffff83200000-0xffffffff83e00000          12M     RW         PSE GLB NX pmd
0xffffffff83e00000-0xffffffffa0000000         450M                           pmd

so data, bss, brk get NX ...
